Questions about resistance teams.

Finally geared pilot but is she better than Rey?
What about zeta rey? Worth it?
Should I zeta combat analysis? (Already did the other)
Right now I use ZFinn, R2, B2, RT and Poe. Should I replace b2 with ZRey or pilot?

Even though I've been running them for awhile still I'm full of questions.

    209. Probably to slow. What should I aim for? My mods are a work in progress.


    Mine is 239 and is still just barely one of the fastest in my shard.


    My Poe is 269 speed.


    Ok, does that still give him enough speed to go first before a 239 Sassy with a 20% TM boost? I don't think so


    Dude, it doesn't matter if your SA gets to go first, it doesn't stop my team. I just fought a team with SA who went 1st and it didn't help that team at all. My squad didn't start rolling as soon as it normally does, but once I did, that team still lost.

    Your acting like the AI on defense is unstoppable, any team can be beat cause the AI is not good... my team gets defeated every now and then on defense, it's how this game works.

    On offense my squad will roll yours, same as any other team I fight.


    So are you, a Resistence team on defence is terrible. One of the easiest to beat with a meta squad. They require targeting like every other team does on defence which is why you actually see results on offence. That's arena lesson number 1 and for some reason that's news to you. The fact that you can win with them means absolutely nothing nowadays. The question is if it can stop an attack more than one time out of ten. Which unless you have God mods is not going to happen for most Resistence squads.

    As soon as you can upgrade Finn's leader ability to Zeta level. Unfortunately they're pretty middle of the pack until then.

    Even after the zeta they do nothing against triple cleanser teams. They rely too much on expose and apart from Rey their damage output is just meh

    You realize you don't have to use them on defense, right? Just switch to a better defensive AI for your last battle.

    EDIT: Unless you're saying they don't do anything on offense against triple cleanse? In which case there's a video right here, right now, showing a team of just Finn, Poe, and Trooper (other two slots empty, not dead) beating a #1 ranked triple cleanse team without taking any damage.

    Was there a fair amount of luck on their part? Sure. But luck or no, that shouldn't even be possible.

    You do realize the concept of RNG right? There is no luck in this game at all. Just a random dice roll that dictates whether an attack does something or not. The fact that they won with that team was inevitable. What they most likely didn't show was the hundreds of attempts at that fight to achieve what they showed. In theory I could solo the entire Heroic Rancor Raid with my 7* Gear 5 Cad Bane because of his leader ability giving dodge chance. Again, beating a team on offence means absolutely nothing anymore because nearly any team that's decently geared and modded right can win on offence. What you don't seem to grasp is how easy it is to beat when it's defending. And the concept of throwing in a defensive team as your last one is moronic because no matter what you put in there somebody on your shard will beat it, so you've effectively thrown away an attack for that day that could have taken you to a higher rank.
  • I was more concerned about the mod challenge they suck at level 61 I know that and i don't even have one zeta for my level 83 areana sith team because lack of proper ships
